Ooooh, this is so cool. The music is awesomely creepy and I love the use of the credit sequence with the blood going down to the pictograms and the objects in the basement overlaying the monsters they represented. Very very awesome!

this was really great!

[goodbyebird]

Absolutely wonderful flow here, and with such a great song! Definitely going to scoop this one up after reveals ♥

[sarkastic]

Very creepy and atmospheric. I really enjoyed this!

[mresundance]

Wow, this was incredibly creepy, and incredibly beautiful. The song choice was great and your editing was spot-on. Well done you!

This is a beautiful kind of creepy. With the clever emphasis on ritual and the musical choice, this vid took mayhem and made it into a surreal nightmare.

[kaydeefalls]

That was so eerie and unsettling and strangely lovely.

[lithiumdoll]

Wow, beautiful editing to the music and brilliantly creepy

[laurashapiro]

Wow, freaktastic. But I like how you're visually unpacking the film here. Very smart.

So. Now that I'll never sleep again I'm not sure whether to thank you or send you my future therapy bills. I'm gonna go with thanking, because damn that was awesomely creepy and moody and disturbing in all the right ways. <3

Lovely.

[colls]

Creepy! Really well done.

I just watched Cabin in the Woods for the first time last night so I'm very happy to find that it's been represented in festivids! This is super creepy and atmospheric; it strips out the more Joss-y meta/humor bits and just leaves the incredible creepiness of the visuals and the premise. Very cool. A really haunting song too.

Oooh, very cool and creepy. I've not watched the source but just for the awesome mix of visuals, superb editing, and music, I say bravo.

Definitely highlights the creep factor of the movie!

[liviapenn]

Sweet! I liked the dreamy song choice, and the way that it didn't focus so much on the individual characters of the kids as the horror of the situation-- somehow that was much creepier.

[franzeska]

Creeeeepy! I love the ethereal feel of the various dancing and walking shots at the beginning. I haven't seen the movie, but I'm guessing the sexy dance wasn't originally all that ethereal.

I loved Cabin in the Woods when I saw it in the theater, but I think I would have absolutely put the film I'm seeing here in my top horror films of all time.

Super creepy. That one profile shot of the worker drones watching emotionlessly just... encapsulates everything that is different about this vid from the movie. So creepy. So effed. I bow to you.

I haven't seen the movie (want to!) but I was transfixed by this.

This is deliciously creepy and you use the music really effectively, and it's a very interesting take on the film. I have a question, though--I noticed that Holden was (almost?) entirely absent from the vid. I get that it's not really a character vid, but all the others at least got a moment for their blood sacrifice and I was wondering if there was a reason for that.
